Thank you for the report. I don't think a video is needed, because I can reproduce this on my Android 6 device, but cannot reproduce this with Android 9. We might want to test this with different OS versions to find the cause of this bug.

Yeah. Thank you for the confirmation.
Btw, when the popup is gone, long pressing won't crash the device. It only crashes when you long press the tab when the popup is already present.

Unable to reproduce on:
- app: Newpipe 0.19.5 (current latest on F-Droid)
- OS: Android Go - 8.1.0 (stock; NOT rooted)
- Hot Pepper Poblano, VLE5
When I try to follow...
... The "Trending" popup simply vanishes as soon as I touch a second time.
It does not appear to crash anything.
I don't have a non-"Go" version of Android to test with,
so cannot confirm that this isn't an issue for non-Go 8.1.0 devices
(nor indeed any other OS version).

Some more info. This issue only happens to the first item in the row. When long-pressing on others twice, the tooltip jumps to the left. So I guess we get a crash, because the tooltip wants to jump out of the screen. This is prevented in newer Android versions because the tooltip vanishes as soon as one stops pressing on the display.
I tested this with AuroaStore and got the same behaviour and the same crash. I guess we cannot do much about it.
_(Maybe updating some libs?)_

@TobiGr I wanted to point out that behavior but couldn't put it into words. So, I skipped it. Thank you for verbalizing it.

@TobiGr: The relevant libs are up-to-date (when ignoring beta versions). I could reproduce on an API 21 AVD.

So, close as an OS problem?

I also got the same behaviour on the official GitHub client for Android, so it is certainly not our fault

Still, is it possible to prevent the tooltip from showing again if one is already visible?
